Expert Reply:
Because the head of PullRite hitches pivot you will always need to use some sort of capture plate or wedge kit to prevent the king pin from pivoting inside the jaws of the hitch. Without one you'd go to turn and the hitch head would turn but the king pin wouldn't have anything to push against would just remain straight with the head spinning around it, not allowing the trailer to turn and would just end up dragging your wheels sideways across the road.
For a Lippert Rhino Box you would need PullRite's 331723 capture plate, which you would have to get directly from them. If you swapped out your pin box to the MORryde Cushioned 5th Wheel Pin Box # MR44HR then you could use the MORryde Pin Box Adapter for PullRite SuperGlide Hitch # MR57ZR. This pin box has an internal spring and glide pads that help eliminate chucking and jerking.
I've attached an installation video I did for a different MORryde pin box to help walk you through the process if you choose to do this yourself. If you do I recommend getting a few guys to help lift the pin boxes as you unmount the old and mount up the new one.
